AP 7532 802.11ac

Unmatched Bandwidth for Unmatched Network and Application Performance
802.11ac technology builds on 802.11n, delivering up to four times the bandwidth through new technology advancements. 3X3 Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) allows 3-spatial streams of data to be sent simultaneously to a single mobile device, substantially improving bandwidth efficiency and utilization. 256 QAM modulation gives the 802.11ac radio an additional performance boost, and works hand-in-hand with MIMO technology to boost the bandwidth of the 802.11n radio to 802.11ac speeds. Since 802.11ac operates only in the 5 GHz band, interference from 2.4 GHz devices is finally eliminated — from Bluetooth® headsets to microwave ovens. The result? Your WLAN can support an unprecedented number of users and applications — including voice and video — allowing you to confidently deploy Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) initiatives and empower new workgroups with mobility.

Easy Migration to 5th Generation 802.11ac Wi-Fi
The dual-radio AP 7532 provides the simplest path to next-generation Wi-Fi. The 802.11ac radio readies you to support new 5 GHz mobile devices, while the 802.11n radio ensures support for all existing mobile devices — including 2.4 GHz clients. The radios work together to allow you to migrate to 802.11ac at your own pace — and without the high cost of “rip and replace.”

More Robust Wireless Connections
Your users will experience a more robust wireless connection than ever before, thanks to improved beamforming. Beamforming creates the most efficient path for data transmission between an access point and a mobile device. Until today, the transmitting beamformer worked alone to define this path. Now, the receiver also assists, a process known as sounding. The result is a stronger connection that enables faster data transmission. Application throughput and performance are improved, along with mobile device battery power.

Gap-Free Security
The AP 7532 secures all your wireless transmissions, ensuring compliance with the government or industry regulations your business may be subject to, such as PCI in retail and HIPAA in healthcare. Your network is protected every second of every day with comprehensive integrated security features that include layer 2-7 stateful packet filtering firewall, AAA RADIUS services, a VPN gateway and location-based access control.

Flexible WIPS Sensor Support
You choose how you want to implement sensing to support AirDefense Network Assurance features. While you can always choose to deploy an AP 7532 as a dedicated sensor, Radio Share and Off-Channel Scan features work hand-in-hand to allow either or both radios to carry client data and act as a sensor, providing dualband sensing without adding cost.

Voice, Locationing, and Guest Access
Support for Voice-over-wireless LAN (VoWLAN) quality of service (QoS) ensures toll quality, even with many simultaneous calls on a single access point. In addition, you can leverage locationing services to locate and track people and assets, as well as control network and application access. And since you can ensure that users are only able to access authorized networks, sites, and applications, it’s easy to provide hotspot and guest access.

The Extreme Networks Advantage: A Turboboost for Performance and Superior Scalability
Since the AP 7532 802.11ac Access Point is part of our ExtremeWireless WiNG 5 family of WLAN infrastructure, it is “network-aware,” able to work in concert with all other ExtremeWireless WiNG 5 controllers and access points to define the route that will enable the fastest and most robust path for every transmission. And since the AP 7532 can be adopted by our controllers for easy centralized management, your network is easy to scale. No matter how many access points and controllers you need, or where in the world they are located, you can deploy, monitor, troubleshoot, and manage them all from a single location. No matter how many users you need to support today or tomorrow, you get the peace of mind that comes from knowing your network is always ready and waiting.
